    Food quality was measurably worse than our experience in 2024, as well as options available. Very slow service just to get initial drink order in before we could go to buffet. Seemed understaffed but food was very disappointing, cold, flavorless etc.

    We had a table of 6. We waited an hour for our food to arrive. The restaurant was busy, but not completely full. It was an hour for BLT, chicken samdwhich, tacos…. Had to ask for refills on water, other drinks- multiple times. Food was good, but disappointed in service and how long we waited.
